Microsoft today unveiled a new preview of Windows 11 Build 22563 for members of the Dev Insider program on the Dev Channel. This update mainly introduces the tablet mode taskbar, which was unveiled a few weeks ago, and includes changes to the group policy governing Windows Update.

New Features in Windows 11 Build 22563 Preview:

Tablet Optimized Taskbar

Microsoft has introduced a new taskbar level, which gives you more confidence and comfort, especially for users who use their computer as a tablet. When you split the keyboard in 2-in-1 or switch to tablet mode, the taskbar now automatically switches to this optimized version. This feature is only available on devices that can be used as tablets. It does not work on laptops or desktop computers.

In the new mode, the taskbar has two modes: broken and expanded. When folded, the taskbar is invisible to your eyes, giving you more screen real estate and preventing you from accidentally calling to the taskbar while holding the tablet. In the extended state, the taskbar is optimized for easy-to-use touch. You can easily switch between the two states by swiping up and down on the bottom of the device.

To find out if this feature is available on your device, navigate to Settings> Personalization> Taskbar> Taskbar Behavior.

Make the content of widgets more dynamic

By experimenting with combining widgets and news feeds into a dynamic mix of widgets, news feeds, dynamic widgets and news content, Microsoft tries to make some changes to the widgets to bring more dynamic content to your widget panel. This will make it easier to find and interact with new widgets and news content through your feed. With dynamic feeds, the weight of the canvas self-curing is reduced, but you can still pin your favorite widgets into it if you want.

If your widget board is customized, all your pinned widgets will be where you want them, and your existing customizations will not be lost. This release focuses on finding widgets from the feed, and we plan to make the feed more personal over time.
